By request: A sampling of Trump's whoppers told Tuesday night. By Curt_Anderson March 6, 2025 12:26 pm Category: Fact Check (0.0 from 0 votes) Rules of the Post Write A New Article How To Post Here

If anybody can, feel free to verify any of Trump's claims quoted here:
1. “Among my very highest priorities is to rescue our economy and get dramatic and immediate relief to working families. As you know, we inherited from the last administration an economic catastrophe and an inflation nightmare.”
2. “Believe it or not, government databases list 4.7 million Social Security members from people aged 100 to 109 years old. It lists 3.6 million people from ages 110 to 119. ... 3.47 million people from ages 120 to 129. 3.9 million people from ages 130 to 139. 3.5 million people from ages 140 to 149. And money is being paid to many of them, and we are searching right now.”
3. “I am pleased to report that in January, the U.S. Army had its single best recruiting month in 15 years.”
4. “Illegal border crossings last month were by far the lowest ever recorded. Ever.”
5. “Over the past four years, 21 million people poured into the United States. Many of them were murderers, human traffickers, gang members.”
6. “Tariffs are about making America rich again and making America great again. And it’s happening. And it will happen rather quickly. There’ll be a little disturbance, but we’re OK with that. It won’t be much.”
7. “We ended the last administration’s insane electric vehicle mandate, saving our auto workers and companies from economic destruction.”
8. Citing alleged examples of what he described as “appalling waste” in the federal government, referenced ”$59 million for illegal alien hotel rooms in New York City.”

"3. “I am pleased to report that in January, the U.S. Army had its single best recruiting month in 15 years.”" It may be a whopper, but I think it's true. But, I'm happy to be corrected. What month in the last 15 years saw a higher number? "4. “Illegal border crossings last month were by far the lowest ever recorded. Ever.”" What months were lower? "7. “We ended the last administration’s insane electric vehicle mandate, saving our auto workers and companies from economic destruction.”" He didn't issue that Executive? Do tell. I think I watched that on Fox. "8. Citing alleged examples of what he described as “appalling waste” in the federal government, referenced ”$59 million for illegal alien hotel rooms in New York City.”" C'mon, gimme a break man! That was big news. Didn't your Holy Trinity report that? Sheeeeeeeeeeeesh! From NBC4, New York: DHS: Agency ‘clawing back' $59 million FEMA funding for NYC migrant stays A judge won't prevent the federal government from attempting to withhold tens of millions of dollars meant to cover hotel costs for migrants in New York by Curt_Anderson on March 6, 2025 1:19 pm ”I think I watched that on Fox.”. —-HtS Well, there’s your problem. See the link I provided for answers. by HatetheSwamp on March 6, 2025 1:31 pm Yeah, mentioning Fox ain't as much fun with Indy gone. All of your AP stuff is misunderstanding Trump or a matter of interpretation. Trump is a BSer, no doubt. "Trump supporters take him seriously but not literally, woke progressives take him literally but not seriously." Perhaps you should take him seriously. You lot not taking him seriously lost Dems the Oval Office, Congress and the EFFINSupreme Court. Please enter Trumpworld reality. Your brain is breaking. by oldedude on March 6, 2025 8:59 pm All I did was to cite the truth. In your first issue (#2), that was a story that was put out and published and then changed later. 3. True. 4. True. 7. Yup, it was an EO, so getting rid of it was easy. 8. True. The numbers. No room to cite. https://nypost.com/2024/07/07/us-news/hotel-make-up-vast-majority-of-migrant-shelters-raking-in-millions/ military.com nypost.com nypost.com nbcnews.com by Ponderer on March 7, 2025 6:48 am 2. "What are the actual numbers?" -Hate Zero. The actual numbers of people over 120 who are receiving Social Security checks is exactly zero. In fact, there is a limit set at the age of 115 where checks automatically stop. The tiny handful of Americans who have actually lived past 115 have had to launch a legal battle with the SS to get the checks restarted again. He is priming America for losing some if not all of our Social Security benefits. There is actually less "waste, fraud, and abuse" in Social Security than in any other government organization. It's run so efficiently that there has never been a late benefit check sent to anyone in over 80 years. We'll see how long that record stands before too long. You know, you MAGA Hats are really doing yourselves a disservice by not watching Rachel Maddow. She went down, point by point, correcting Trump's lies and providing the data to back it up. And it was right after the speech, too. None of it is hard to look up. Search up that speech wrap-up show MSNBC did and all your questions will be answered. Go To Top
